My Story of Waking Up - in retrospect
by cappytan inso, many of y'all know bits and pieces of my story of waking up, but i thought it might be nice to have it all in one place.. i was baptized at 11, auxiliary pioneered every summer, regular pioneer at 17, ministerial servant by 19, then went to bethel for a year.. i always had minor doubts from time to time, but nothing serious.
always dismissed doubts and decided to "just have faith.".
after leaving bethel, i was never really firing on all cylinders "spiritually speaking.

Hello El Cappytan! You've come a long way, you! I'm actually kind of surprised it was the 607 and TOMO III "Tight Pants" thing. I would have thought Bethel service would be enough to awaken anyone to the incredible hypocrisy of the WT cult. Oh well, whatever gets you out!
I'm glad to hear your wife is on the outs as well.

Same reason Jim Jones up and moved People's Temple from San Francisco to the jungle of Guyana. Control, control, and MORE control. And control and manipulate in secrecy, out from under watchful eyes.
Wait and see, they'll start buying up property around Warwick so that in a few decades, they'll "own" that small town. They're already at it, actually.
Cult Compound, ala WT style. Scary.

Example of shunning

Legit Questions:
1.) Is this guy a locally known Apostate from another denomination? As in, has he in the past picketed, demonstrated, or gone all crazy like outside these conventions? If so, I wouldn't have spoken to him either!
2.) I wonder if someone wearing a new suit, being filmed by a pro camera on a tripod, with a "Apos 8" square thing on a better microphone would have gotten a better reception? You know, fool them into thinking you are legit media, then put them on the spot about their shunning?
If this had been me as a JW approached by a guy like this, I would spoken to him. What's to be afraid of? My gut reaction, is that this guy has previously been a pain-in-the-ass trouble maker type, no matter what he "claims" now, and this is why the people couldn't get away from him fast enough. Think "Mr Coffee" of at Columbia Heights. Total obsessed nut-job.

Well another one leaves the Borg.
by John Aquila ini took a quick trip to the store and i happened to see a young man (about 26-28 years old) who got baptized about the same time i was leaving- about 2 years ago.
a couple of pioneer sisters found him in the door to door work.
one of them, a very attractive girl.

Bravo!! Bravo to that young man! One less "victim" that the WTBTS can fleece of youth, life, and liberty.
I wish I could have been with you. I wish I could have heard him speak. His words could have very well been mine, even though I was born in. I had similar conversations with my parents growing up, about how uppity and smug JW girls were....that nothing you did was ever good enough. The constant bashing of higher education, while some Elder's kids secretly obtained degrees anyway, and no one knew until they got a good-paying job.
It's experiences like this that confirm to me that leaving was the right thing to do, and that I in fact am not crazy. THEY are the crazy brainwashed Cult members. I hope you gave that young man this website address, as well as told him he was lucky to have escaped a highly-controlling CULT.
If the JW's had their way, this young fellow would have immediately dropped out of college, started his own janitorial business while full-time Pioneering beside a literature cart, and giving every cent to the contribution box and every ounce of life to the cult. Guess he wasn't having any of that? Guess he didn't want to be a complete LOSER all his life, huh?
Incredible story......really made my day!

Our hall is asking for money...
by thedepressedsoul ini guess the branch isn't happy with the amount being sent each month since we are way lower than our loan amount.
we now have to another financial survey to see the max amount that can be given.
it is "encouraged" for all to be in attendance and give much forethought and consideration to the amount you can donate each month.

^^^^^^^ So WT stopped sending literature when they didn't get the funds they "requested?"
Gee, that sounds like an absolute BLESSING from Jehovah, if you ask me!!!! No more freakin' literature to have to peddle? Nothing coming in at ALL you say??? I would never donate again, ever!
So as we can see from above, WT's message to the rank-n-file sheep is, "Go forth, be warm and well fed, Brothers."
The Christian Love is really flowing in this religion.

TOMO III says,
"Do as we say, and not as we do!!
Never mind what Leo Greenless is doing to that young, tight-pants wearing male Bethelite behind the curtain!! "

WT.org has totally jumped the shark with that form. Could you imagine such a form being passed around in the 1980's? My parents would have gotten up from their seats and promptly LEFT, never to return. It was instilled in my as a born-in that the WT Society would NEVER beg or guilt their members into donating $$$$ like worldly churches of Christendom did. NEVER. In fact, it was stated that if/when they did ever start that, that that is when you'd know Satan had infiltrated the religion, possibly the Governing Body, and that it was time to leave. No bull. That's how I was raised. That's what I heard from older Elders, now deceased of course.
This begs the question, "Whom really are the Apostates?" Who now are beating their fellow slaves? Hmmmm.

These money-grubbing Basturds! Can you believe the audacity? The freakin' BALLS?!?
Do tell GB, what exactly do you contribute BACK to your Flock? What soup kitchens, orphanages, retirement homes, hospitals, free clinics, community centers (that actually benefit people, not just Assembly Halls), homeless shelters, and the like have you built to help your fellow man? Answer: ZERO. Therefore, I feel that you are deserving of exactly ZERO of my financial funds.
I've been saying this for a long time now, "The money only flows one way in WT-Land, from the wallets of the rank and file to the coffers of the WT accounts."
Not one dime ever returns to a sheep who is need to help pay for medical bills, financial hard times, education, drug or alcohol rehab, or similar. Other "worldly" religions take care of their Flocks, so what exactly is the WT's excuse? They have none, except they are too busy buying and building up their real estate portfolio to give a damn. Well guess what WT? We and many of the rank and file that you perpetually shit upon, no longer give a damn about you either. Enjoy the reaping you assholes!

Nice pinky ring, TOMOIII. I bet the Irish & female JW's just LOVE you, TOMO III.
Can't believe this assclown is actually leading a cult of 8 million enslaved drones.
UGH.
